Parent article: A Look at Arch Linux

I've been fighting Unix then Linux for years. Linux is so demanding; forget the family wife and kids, social life; it's all or nothing with linux. I do so hate cults. But I'll make an exception with Arch'
Thanks to Arch' I can now just relax and get on with what I want to do.
I Started programming IBM360 assembler in 1968, Micros in 1975, Expert Systems (Smalltalk and Prolog) 1990, System Design since about 1992. Retired to design the "big one" according to a 200 year old spec.
Linux will merely boot it. So I don't need a degree in linux, do I?
At 64 you can understand that I have no interest in HowTo, or WhatIf stuff. Just WhyFor, WhoFor and WhatFor.
Thanks guys, I owe you one !
